Wine lover since 2001! My interest in wine began while touring the factory where they printed the LCBO VINTAGES magazine.
Over time, my passion for wine grew. Now, I am highly regarded by friends and colleagues as a resource for when they need a wine for that special occasion, be it an anniversary, birthday, wedding, gatherings at home, or when they want to impress their special friend or the In-Laws.
Combining my interest in the Internet/web/computers, you can find me at https://vintagewinepicks.blogspot.com where you will find more wine reviews, events and contests.

Winzer Krems Grüner Veltliner 2017, Dac Kremstal
Kremstal, Austria$15.95
Medium+ intensity nose offers lime citrus, stony mineral and herbally hints. It's light-to-mid weighted with bright, fresh, and vibrant acidity supporting the ripe, concentrated flavours that mimic the bouquet, plus some white pepper notes. Nicely textured with a long, crisp, lip-smacking finish. Tasted Aug/2019.

Château Hauchat 2016, Ac Fronsac
Bordeaux, France$17.95
This 100% Merlot was aged for 15 months in an equal parts new, 1 year old, and 2 year old barrels. Enticing and complex, this has medium+ intensity aromas of spice mingling with ripe dark berry fruit, wood, and hints of vanilla and plum. It is medium-full bodied on the palate with dark berry, currant, cedar oak, and spice flavours. Acids are juicy while the ripe tannins are quite chalky and a bit tight at the moment. Dark berry, clove spice, and wood linger on the finish, with very good length. I would cellar this for 2 years and enjoy into the mid-20's. Tasted Aug/2019.
